• Lead the evaluation and selection of technologies, frameworks, and standards used to implement the data architecture.

• Establish and promote best practices for data management and governance across the organization.

• Collaborate with leadership teams and business stakeholders to ensure the data architecture meets evolving business needs, by translating technical constraints into clear, actionable options.

• Identify and anticipate complex technical challenges in the data platform, proposing innovative and effective solutions.

• Provide advanced technical guidance to data development and architecture teams, reviewing design decisions and unblocking complex implementation issues.

• Ensure data architecture decisions comply with applicable data security regulations and standards.

• Mentor and empower other team members by sharing knowledge and experience, supporting their technical growth.

• Develop and maintain strategic relationships with technology partners and suppliers relevant to the data platform.

• Represent the data architecture in internal and external technical and strategic forums.

Requirements

• Proven experience with cloud data platforms, preferably Azure Cloud Services and Microsoft Fabric.

• Experience with data lake design, implementation, and Delta Lake-based architectures.

• Demonstrated ability to guide teams through complex technology migrations and architectural changes.

• Strong mentoring and technical leadership skills, with experience supporting the growth of less experienced team members.
